Taylor Polynomials and Series are in
Sections 11.10 and 11.11 of Stewart. However, we are not doing the rest of
Chapter 11. Stewart does the topics in reverse– series first and then
polynomials. So you may want to wait until we finish TN 1-5 before looking at
the book.
Section 11.10 Taylor and Maclaurin Series
McLaurin series is
Taylor series with b=0. Ignore division
of series and binomial series. You can do problems 5-10, 11-16, 19, 20, 35-43,
54-58 and 61-65. (Correct to k decimal places means the error is less
than 5*10^(-k-1).)
Section 11.11 Applications of Taylor Polynomials
Ignore the section on applications to physics. You can do problems 3-10,
13-21 parts (a) and (b), 23-26.
